The thing is, being where it is, all I can see that doing is circulating warm air around under the shell?

could do with fitting one the the front window of the shell? sucking the cool air in from outside.

Personally I don't think motor fans are needed. Speedo fan possibly, but with the correct gearing the motor shouldn't be getting that hot, if it is, go to a quicker wind?

The motor is much cooler but only a part of it. The front is around 35-40° and the back is around 50-55°. I wonder if this is a problem concerning performance ?
